Hey! So I have two spare computers, with 7th gen i5s and 16GB of ram. What would be the best way to try and monetise them? I’ve found one or two websites which allow you to rent out your servers essentially as a VPS on a fairly long term way with a decent payout. However I tried sending them an email and got no response. Are there any other such services?

    Because you don’t have dozens of ipv4 addresses and you don’t give a SLA or a business invoice you have to severely undercut prices.

    A VPS with that cpu performance can be rented for free from Oracle or from $2 from ovh.

    So you have to rent it to 50 different customers just to break even the electricity price. Impossible

    Not to mention bad customers who pay the low fee just to see if you’re hackable
